Autumn brings a new rhythm to the city. The days grow cooler, everyday routines return, and the urge to get away becomes a little stronger. But you don’t have to wait for your next holiday to enjoy a change of scenery.
From Piraeus, Aegina, Agistri, Methana and Poros are all within easy reach. A walk by the sea, a few hours on an island or a full day away from the city can be enough to recharge.
Why visit the Saronic Islands in autumn?
Autumn brings a different feel to the Saronic Islands: a slower pace, more relaxed walks and extra time to enjoy each destination. It’s a lovely season for a day trip from Athens or a short escape that makes space for the things that often get lost in a busy week.
And the best part? You don’t need to plan a long holiday. Travel from Piraeus with Saronic and choose the island that suits you.
Aegina: an island to return to
Aegina is a lovely choice for an autumn escape close to Athens. Take a walk around the port and through the town’s narrow streets, enjoy the sea views and let the day unfold at its own pace. Whether you have a few hours or a whole day, Aegina offers an easy change of scenery.
Agistri: a little escape with a summery feel
In Agistri, the sea and green landscapes set the scene for a relaxed island day. It’s a great choice if you want to leave the noise of the city behind and enjoy a slower pace, even after summer has passed.
